Nirvana is pretty tame, but when they pretend they even know who Def Leppard or Metallica are by wearing their t-shirts from H&M, I just want to scream!
I know. I get you. Some of them will have parents who play that stuff at home though, so they'll know them.
An ex once text me at 4am saying 'my cars been stolen : (' the sad faced icked me. And just the fact that out of the 100s of cars on his street, they chose to steal his! Maybe abit harsh on my part
